The Twitter Files, Part Deux!! 🍿🍿 https://t.co/bH9UiTSEK2
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) December 9, 2022
* Journalists Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have been handed a trove of documents from Twitter, detailing why they censored the story of Hunter Biden's laptop
* Taibbi released the first tranche of the documents on Friday, and Weiss on Thursday followed up with a second series * Weiss revealed that conservatives and lockdown skeptics were deliberately down-ranked by Twitter, to stop their accounts gaining prominence
* Among those blacklisted were Fox News regular Dan Bongino and youth activist Charlie Kirk, plus Stanford CDC critic Dr Jay Bhattacharya
* Jack Dorsey and his head of legal, Vijaya Gadde, both denied that Twitter ever deliberately downgraded or 'shadow banned' any accounts
* The documents from Taibbi showed panic among senior Twitter staff in October 2020 when The New Post reported on the contents of Hunter's computer
Twitter kept a 'secret blacklist' of topics and accounts to prevent them from trending, according to data obtained by journalist Bari Weiss - with up to 200 'cases' being dealt with a day by a special division within the company.
Conservative commentators such as Dan Bongino and Charlie Kirk were deliberately put on a 'search blacklist' - in the case of Bongino - or tabbed 'do not amplify', in the case of Kirk.
Those who questioned the prevailing COVID orthodoxy of lockdowns and mask mandates, such as Stanford's Dr Jay Bhattacharya, who argued that lockdowns harmed children, were also placed on a 'search blacklist'.

How 'bout that? They were exactly who we thought they were. (They still are, by the way.) The first step in any properly executed war is psychological: scorched-earth propaganda. The Libtards have been at it full-tilt for over a decade now. And still the Conservatards are fast asleep. Not looking good.
Every other social media platform does exactly the same including ''news media'' well done Musk he is certainly throwing a spanner in the works this is Pandoras box
The usual MSM rats are feverishly busy trying to destroy their former golden boy Matt Taibbi for his work on the twitter files. I'm sure they'll find a reason to label Bari Weiss a Russian propagandist for this second dump.
There are no emails in Taibbi’s cache demonstrating these alleged illicit relations or, more importantly, any actions Twitter employees took as a result of such undue influence.
Many observers, even among the crowd of Musk’s usual supporters, thought the drop was a flop. A New York Post columnist, Miranda Devine, told Tucker Carlson that the documents were “not really the smoking gun we’d hoped for.” Conservative pundit Sebastian Gorka wrote on Truth Social, according to The Daily Beast, “So far, I’m deeply underwhelmed. We know the Dems in DC collude with the Dems in Palo Alto. Big Whop.” Joe Simonson, a reporter for the conservative news outlet The Washington Free Beacon, wrote that the “Twitter files [are] underwhelming so far. Just revealing what we already knew: Twitter was staffed by democrats who did the bidding of Democrats.” (Do they even do that?)
Because Democrats never destroy computers, wipe servers or burn evidence.
Try again harder.
The ‘Twitter Files’ Is What It Claims to Exposebut no. you can't handle the truth!
tired of winning?
